_TODO:
Dale Jones emailed me c. 2010 re Doxsee family.

Language:
"Archelaus Doxsee came from Long Island, where his parents, who were English, had their home on the Sound, near Brooklyn. The English, living so much among the New Hollanders and intermarrying with them, both languages were in common use; and the Doxsees were almost as conversant in the Dutch tongue as they were with their own."

Emigration:
Archelaus brought his family from Long Island to Canada in 1800. "He journeyed north by way of the Mohawk River Valley, striking the St. Lawrence River a little above Clayton."

Family:
"The daughters of the pioneer, Archelaus Doxsee, were the mothers and grandmothers of some of the most handsome women in Prince Edward, a county which is said to be inhabited by the men with the good looking sisters".

Immigration:
Archelaus brought his family to Canada in 1800. "He did not stop any time at Adolphustown, but crossed over the Bay at once and located at Green Point on the farm adjoining Cole's Wharf. Green, or Grassy Point, was settled earlier than the land that lay to its west and extended immediately towards Northport, and among its early settlers were the Doxsee, Row, Shortt, and Carman families."

Occupation:
"It was the pioneer Doxsee who was said to have built the first wagon in the county. As he was skilled in the trade of a wheelwright, he was well fitted for the task. The wagon was a curious structure and crudely primitive. With the exception of the tires, there was no iron employed in its construction - the body, shafts and nuts were made of wood. But it was a welcome means of transport in open weather. In winter, its need was not felt, as jumpers of sleighs proved better substitutes. These sleighs, placed on hardwood runners curved upwards in front, were drawn by yokes of oxen. Heavily laden, they slid over the roots, stumps and boulders with the utmost unconcern. A breakdown was only an incident of the trip; it made no serious hindrance to the progress of the journey; for the early pioneer, like the modern motorist, always carried his kit of tools. If his sleigh could not be mended, the materials to make a new one were always at hand."

Archelaus married Martha RAYNERNew York, United States. Martha was born in United States; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
